The Pentagon says every site targeted in the air strikes in Syria was hit. Lieutenant General Kenneth McKenzie spoke in a press briefing Saturday. Pentagon spokeswoman Dana White remarked that the strikes were orchestrated to minimize collateral damage. She also said the attacks were justified, legitimate, and proportionate in response to a chemical weapons attack on a town outside Damascus. McKenzie said the size of the strikes overwhelmed Syria's air defenses. He called the strikes precise, overwhelming, and effective.
